A light-emitting apparatus includes a light-emitting element, a base body, a reflection member and a fluorescent material layer. A cross section of the inner surface of the reflection member cut by a virtual plane including a virtual axis penetrating a center of the inner surface and perpendicular to the upper principal surface of the base body has a sectional profile defined by a curved line expressed by the following formula, and the inner surface of the reflection member is a curved surface obtained by rotating the curved line about the virtual axis: Z=(cr<SUP>2</SUP>)/[1+{1-(1+k)c<SUP>2</SUP>r<SUP>2</SUP>}<SUP>1/2</SUP>] (where -10<=k<=-0.001, 0.001<=c<=10). An angle theta<SUB>1 </SUB>which is made by an upper surface of the fluorescent material layer and a line which connects one corner of a light-emitting portion of the light emitting element with an uppermost position of the inner surface and is tangent to the one corner, is given as theta<SUB>1</SUB>>=90°-sin<SUP>-1 </SUP>(1/n<SUB>1</SUB>). |
